Pandastan

The president’s gone mad, but who could blame him? A mysterious race of sentient pandas with curious powers has burst onto the world stage, and they’re turning the whole planet upside down. That’s just fine with Dramedy, though. Anything to spice up her dreary life as a court clerk.

That’s exactly what Dramedy gets when she’s tapped to serve on a secret court in America’s War on Pandas. The pandas are determined to reverse world economic growth in order to save the planet; but President Gripp, convinced he’s receiving commands from a deity known only as “the Market,” is ready to plunge the entire world into nuclear war to foil their plans.

Now it’s up to Dramedy to stop him. She is joined by Jack and Carrie, two young Americans taken captive by pandas while journeying home from their work in Africa. Together, they must appeal to the pandas for peace. That means journeying deep within the Hindu Kush to the secret city of Pandalama, in the remote, mountainous realm of Pandastan.

The Pandastan Trilogy explores our human civilization, bent on self-destruction, alongside am evolved society of mystic pandas who intervene to prevent planetary ecological collapse. But without the willing cooperation of humanity, the powers of the pandas will not be enough to prevail.

The tale follows a small group of ordinary humans who unexpectedly find themselves at the juncture between human and panda worlds. They turn to the pandas for teachings in mind, spirit, and love, seeking to apply this wisdom in service of a healed age.
